दि एग्ज़ोरसिस्ट III

Most all have watched the 1973 film classic "The Exorcist" and if like me you decided to miss the lame sequel part 2 with Linda Blair. However this 1990 film "The Exorcist III" goes well in step with the classic original almost like a continuation story of evil and possession with past connections. Based on a 1983 novel from William Peter Blatty called "Legion" this story and film is a scary and creepy fright feast that proves evil does exist in the world that we live in perhaps in the form of bad spirits and the afterlife. The film paces the scenes well the build up of the scenes are often slow yet end with very tense endings and bloody murders.

Set in Washington D.C. in the town of Georgetown a series of strange and bizarre murders start to happen and the killings are gruesome and they involve decapitations and mock style executions which rivals that of "Jesus being nailed to the cross". Enter Lt. Kinderman(the great George C. Scott) who's weathered worn burned out tough as nails detail detective soon starts to find that the murders are related to and rival that of the Gemini killer(an executed killer). Also the story and cases tie into a university hospital psych ward. Plus their is a scene in the hallway of a Nurses station that is freakish it may just be one of the scariest in horror film history.

Interesting is seeing how Patient X and a past form of Father Karras ties into the murders, also the performance from Brad Dourif is scary and spooky as the Gemini Killer. The acting and cast chemistry is all pro plus the scenes filmed were paced well and the camera work helped make the movie a knockout as many scary and tense moments have a slow build up only to surprise with quick and unexpected terror and fear! Finally watch this good well done sequel from 1990 and yes it was indeed scary proving that evil exist and is present in many forms thru people and their spirits, and for more insight read Blatty's complex novel "Legion".
